ROUND ABOUT: NBL12/WNBL13
WHAT’S cooking in Sydney? The coach and a board member having a sideline exchange? A co-captain saying the players are to blame.

Rankings #13 ... and who knew?

ROUND ABOUT: NBL 11
WHAT a way to close out the 2013 portion of this gripping NBL season with just about every team back in the playoff mix.

SYDNEY Kings coach Shane Heal put the cat among the pigeons by suggesting the NBL should play on Christmas Day next year but the responses eventually balanced out to about 50-50.
Rankings #12 ... and no surprises
WHAT an amazing run of milestones for the NBL to close out 2013 on, starting with Wollongong Hawks mentor Gordie McLeod's 650th appearance as either a player or coach, or both!
